Château Pichon Longueville Baron is also the name of the red wine produced by this property.
In 1987 the estate was purchased by French insurance company AXA, who immediately appointed Jean-Michel Cazes of Château Lynch-Bages as administrator.
[2] The vineyard is situated at the southern end of the commune of Pauillac near border with the Saint-Julien-Beychevelle appellation.
Grapes are harvested and sorted by hand, and then macerated for 20–30 days, and fermented at 28–32 °C in temperature controlled stainless steel vats of varying sizes.
The wine is transferred into oak barrels for aging after finishing its malolactic fermentation.
